Posted - 06 Sep 2013 : 19:47:18 Hi Andy,

Been very quite indeed to my regrets...Wanted to come but didn't get permissions from my parents as I just have my drivers license for 2 months now and they said I could drive on the left side of the road yet, not alone at least... + the fact I've been working all august..BUT if You'd be organizing something next year I'd be there now matter what!!!Hopefully in my own car but progress is too slow for my wanting... But we'll see how far we get by next year and otherwise I'll take my grand dad's white fastback!

I WILL BE THERE NEXT YEAR!!!!

I think it was dave I spoke to,he said he would pass on my apologies

maybe next year there will be more cars as there are a few series & fastbacks being restored at the moment

jabe 1807 and fastback Thomas have been quiet of late maybe they could be tempted to attend ;)

That comes from here - the belt tensioner:

It ran dry, got hot and melted the pully - leaving this:

This left me with no alternator, no water pump and no power steering.Fortunately there was a pub nearby

Posted - 21 Aug 2013 : 08:34:09 Looked out for you on Sun, but didn't hear you had probs: sorry to hear that, it was`a good event - will try to post a few pics later. About 35 Rapier's on Sunday. Mine not amongst them . Charging problems that I did not have parts to fix in the time available. Hope to during this week. It is on the road now, so will get it to some event at some point before next year's national . Cheers. G.
